Thinking of parting with the Benz in exchange for a new work truck. I bought this 6 months ago from John Voo (ATEB), it was his daughters car for 4 yrs while she attended university. He bought it from Outback with 64k on the odo. it now stands at 140k.
Anyway it is a RIGHT HAND DRIVE 1991 190E Sportline edition car with a 2.0 litre injected 4 cylinder and a 4 speed auto. The factory Benz Sportline package includes the power adjustable leather sport seats, lowered suspension, wider alloy wheels, quicker ratio steering and a smaller diameter leather steering wheel etc... The car has power steering, windows, locks, mirrors, ice cold A/C with dual zone control, power tilt/slide sunroof, power adjustment for the headlight angle and it all works flawlessly. The power antenna, however, is on a permanent vacation. The motor works but the antenna mast is stationary. The car has 4 wheel disc brakes and 4 wheel ABS and a drivers side airbag. John always used synthetic fluids in this car, I have done the same.
I had John replace all 4 brake rotors and all brake pads, they are less than 5k old. I replaced a rusted section in the exhaust, all is ok. Aircare till Nov. '11.
The car has NO rust, no accidents, no leaks- it really is quite remarkable. The build quality is really remarkable. It drives quite nicely, is economical, stops on a dime and handles like a go kart. A very nice reliable little German sport sedan. I drove to Mission and back at 140 kmh 2 weeks ago with 1 finger on the wheel.
I have damaged the right front air dam since the above pics were taken. It doesn't effect the operation of the vehicle.
I bought this car because the body is close to perfect for it's age and it runs like new. More importantly, it has a verifiable service history and exceptionally careful ownership stretching back over the last 6 years with John Voo. I thought I'd offer it here before the usual sales options.
Asking $2800 obo.
